ta Scalpa...yepnew tyres are on the list..will take your comments on board.
Had the banjo LSD re furbished a few weeks ago,and it was good, but it is slipping worse than ever now.
Need to get it bakto the diff guy for a check (tomorrow).
Yeah terra....they are quite focused on the completion side of things, and are totally open to cars other than MGs.
The joy of going out and giving it a good squirt..

good old ringwood the remote control car circuit.have plenty of fond memories from here.we used to go and practice all day sat then camp there and get some beers and bbq into us sit round the fire and race sunday .i remember my first run there i ended up going the wrong way accross the top ah well.it was awesome fun.i remember once they left me with the key and went home and locked the gate ,the next morning we went down to open the gate and there was a big line of cars waiting to get in .oops.i used to take my 4 door there there is a good pic with the tyre nearly folding under the rim on one of the bends its tight.good to see you there in the tory.i see not much has changed i was usually the only tory there as well.my neighbour used to take his yellow dolly lc gtr there as well and it was close all day but he usually pipped me.glad to see you had fun.might see you there one day.not a real big pic but this is on the last corner before the finish line with the front left tyre nearly off.

An old trick for the Banjo LSD was to build up the LSD cones with Nickel-Bronze. It makes it a little brutal and noisy but predictable and reliable.

Just been on the CAMS and hillclimbnsw website and was looking into doing some hill climbs this year. Really keen to get into organised Motorsport at an entry level.
I've done track days before etc in late model cars but have never given thenLX a belt on the track... Are there any GMH Torana track days? I'd love to get out with similar cars and see what others are running etc and what I can learn from blokes with experience.

Hi Andrew
FYI there is a Mountain Straight Hillclimb on at Bathurst 1/3/15.
Never done it before but going this time.
Runs from the side of the pits area , up to Mc Phillamy Park....a change to pretend you are P.B.!
You need to be in a CAMS affiliated car club, and have a club type competition licence ""L2S"" as a minimum to enter.
Regardless of what you choose...there seems to be plenty of events around.....have fun mate.
